The Winter Soldier” has commenced in Los Angeles, Calif., with

D.C. Directing the film is the team of Anthony and Joe Russo (“Welcome

(“Captain America: The First Avenger”) & Stephen McFeely (“Captain

“Marvel’s The Avengers”) as the iconic Super Hero character Steve
Rogers/Captain America, along with Scarlett Johansson (“Marvel’s The
Avengers,” “Iron Man 2”) as Black Widow and Samuel L. Jackson (“Marvel’s
The Avengers,” “Iron Man 2”) as Nick Fury. In addition, film icon Robert Redford has joined the all-star cast as Agent Alexander Pierce, a senior leader within the S.H.I.E.L.D. organization.“Captain America: The Winter Soldier” is set for release on April 4, 2014.

“Captain America: The Winter Soldier” will pick-up
where “Marvel’s The Avengers” left off, as Steve Rogers struggles to
embrace his role in the modern world and teams up with Natasha Romanoff,
aka Black Widow, to battle a powerful yet shadowy enemy in present-day
Washington, D.C.

Marvel Studios’ upcoming release schedule includes “Iron Man 3” on
May 3, 2013, and “Thor: The Dark World” on November 8, 2013. The studio
most recently produced the critically acclaimed “Marvel’s The Avengers,”
which set the all-time, domestic 3-day weekend box office record at
$207.4 million. The film, which shattered both domestic and
international box office records, is Disney’s highest-grossing global
and domestic release of all time and marks the studio’s fifth film to
gross more than $1 billion worldwide.
